Good morning Dear friends, I'm Brother Yonten & am so pleased to meet you all. May you enjoy peace, happiness, freedom & good health throughout your lifetime ???

That's a good question. I guess to me it means always aiming for peace by controlling what I allow into my life and having tools and strategies in place for the things I can't control that cause me stress. Many things have been proven to help reduce stress, such as exercise, meditation, journaling, eating whole foods, being outdoors, having a good network of friends... Of course, it's not always easy to completely avoid stress, but it's definitely doable and it's good for both our mental and physical well-being.

I have found that by the end of the week my focus has increased substantially. I really do appreciate that space when the mind begins to settle and the thoughts can drift in and out freely without attachment. I found there were some days when it was extremely difficult. Fatigue and business kept me from really sinking in. But I trust it is a process and like any muscle takes time to grow and develop. I would like to continue to incorporate my sitting practice with every moment of my life. While I find it easier to sit and keep focused on my breath, I find at times in my daily life, even when I know it's better for me to just sit still and watch, the pull of the external world and my old habits sometimes pulls me from that peace. Patiently I shall work.

At the dawn of the third decade of the 21st century, the existence of humankind has become highly perilous. We are cutting down our forests, exhausting our fresh water aquifers, and losing our vital top soils. We are stripping the life from our oceans and replacing it with hundreds of millions of tons of plastic waste. We are flooding our environment with toxic industrial chemicals. Our pollution is driving climate change that causes heat waves, droughts, and wild fires that shred the fabric of life on the continents. And we are bringing new generations into the world, millions who require access to the resources of a dignified existence. The scope and breadth of the threats to life are increasing day after day. This is not a sustainable mode of development.Goodreads, alexis karpouzos official siteThe root cause of our ills stems from a mistaken way of thinking. What exactly does this mean? it means that we have been thinking of ourselves mainly as material beings, while denying our spiritual nature. Because we think that we exist as material beings and nothing more, we place first importance on protecting our bodies from harm and prolonging our material existence. Our spiritual nature, if considered at all, is treated as a secondary aspect of our physical being—something not to be taken seriously. To us, the only things that matter are the phenomena that appear in the material world—things that can be seen, or heard, or touched, or measured, but we know that our senses deceive us, the senses are a construction of the brain. What we consider a real world is an illusion. The domination of the positivist and materialist thought leads to irrationality and destruction.IMDB, alexis karpouzos official siteYet where has this approach led us? Has it brought us a sense of happiness and fulfillment? Rather than living each day in a spirit of joyful cooperation, with our hearts filled with bright hope and happy anticipation, we have isolated ourselves from others and viewed them as rivals or enemies. Our thoughts are flooded with suspicion, fear and greed, leading to an endless cycle of war, poverty, starvation, and environmental destruction. Unless we wake up soon and pay attention to our spiritual nature, there will be no future for humanity on Earth.Words are life. Words are light. Words are power. Words are energy. Words are truth. Words can enliven and words can also kill. Words can give hope, or plunge us into despair. People use words to build peace, and use words to make war. Words can create walls between cultures, religions, and nations. And words can also build bridges. The existence of an individual, a family, a community, a country, and our planet is being led to good or to evil through the power of the words we speak. The words we speak are responsible for everything that happens in this world. We, therefore, must be responsible for the words we speak. On behalf of future generations, I hope that each of us will do all we can to speak only bright, light-filled words, so that one day, our descendants will be born into a world filled with light. There is no time to lose. Starting at this very moment, I hope all of us will take a close look at the words we have been using and make constant efforts to fill them with brightness.Amazon, alexis karpouzos official site No one is going to change our lives for us. No one is going to change the world for us. It is time for each of us to recognize the prodigious, creative power that is unleashed by each word we speak, and to consciously speak only words filled with gratitude, encouragement, and good intention. From this moment forward, let us choose words that resonate with love and forgiveness for ourselves and others. We can certainly do it if we take just one step forward. One step at a time, one word at a time, we can uproot the germs of tragedy and of isolation in our consciousness and convert them into waves of happiness and conciliation. For the sake of ourselves, for the sake of Mother Earth, and for the sake of future generations, let us use words that contribute to the positive evolution of humankind on Earth. alexis karpouzos, visual art1.mp4 alexis karpouzos_ The world in the flames.mp4

Truly amazing I am completely in peace enjoying and comfort

They locked you down, then they offer you a minimum income for your survival, finally they would insist that you get a jab on the vaccine. Meat farms have animals kept in cage, feed them enough to grow, and jabbed them with vaccine to ensure their survival till the end. Sounds the same? Ya, sadly. And eventually both get slaughtered. But they'll start with your kids. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/dc-politics/dc-vaccine-minors/2020/10/20/7378801e-12e4-11eb-ba42-ec6a580836ed_story.html taking a pause here... God see things from the heaven, I see things from the ground. But we both draw the line, and probably the same line. I'm not trying to play God, but the politicians and Climate folks are when they think they are in control. The US election shows us how our freedom can be stolen from us. It shows us how that few people, with that power of convenience, can exercise their own discretion of what they think is right over the voice of the people. Be it the judges, the politician, the press and even the social media. The "great reset" would be the further extension of all the above. It's literally Communism 2.0 to speak of. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/06/now-is-the-time-for-a-great-reset/ BLM?? No, ALL lives matter! But now, choosing side matter! So which side of the line do you stand? To be quite is to promote them to continue their ill-doings. Peace is not for the coward nor the inaction. "We the People" need to work hard towards humanity. Freedom is not free, without cost. May the World have peace, not that to become amalgamated, but to have the respect for others and to allow for "Agree to disagree". The future is in our hands.

So I'm looking forward to becoming an active member in this forum. I didn't think forums (outside of social media sites) really existed any longer. About a dozen or so years ago, I was an active member on several forums. Brief Bio: I'm 47. I live in New York. I've been a team leader and "coach" for real estate professionals for the last 7 years now and my career has been real estate since 2008. I'm walking away from that genre because it wasn't my calling. I created L.I.F.E. Coaching and manage a podcast called From Pieces To Peace. My goal is to have 200 clients by this time next July, 2021. I just want to serve folks at the highest levels. Helping people to understand what "Raising Standards" means and to see that the bridge from where they are to where they COULD GO is not as far as they think.

Happiness, is being unapologetically me. To walk with both humility and confidence and to embrace the connection with my internal and external existence all whilst inhaling peace and exhaling love.

I'm happiest when I am out in nature with lots of big trees. Being around water is very calming to me. Nature allows me to breath deeper and slower. It slows down all the crazy thoughts running through my brain. Being with animals has the same affect on me. I looking for away to find that peace and contentment in my every day life. To much stimulation of any kind cause to feel anxious. I hope I reading other peoples stories can make me see things and understand things differently

Hi Tyrell just wanted to say that you matter, you are special and you are not alone! When I am feeling anxious I like to plan a hiking or an outdoor activity, connecting with nature really bring me peace and root me again! Also I love cooking so making a special dinner just for myself is my way of self care! Always look inside, yoga and meditation, listen to calm music, write a journal and express what are you feeling at the moment! just express yourself and let it all out

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling unhappy and lonely, those are feelings that can easily overwhelm and take over so it's a great thing that you're reaching out for support and advice. I agree with Tati that it's important to try and find happiness in yourself; to come to the understanding that you can make yourself happy rather than relying on others for happiness. If you feel like you messed something up with this person you mention, perhaps try to talk to them and explain your feelings and apologise if you did something wrong. Whether they accept or not, it might give you peace of mind to have shared how you feel. It's been a difficult year that has left many of us feeling lonely and anxious, and due to different stages of restriction it might be hard to socialise with others at this time. Joining our little community is a great thing, but perhaps you can also look into joining (online) classes of some sort? Whether it's yoga, live workouts, a book circle - there are tones of niche communities that have emerged just because people are restricted from going out and meeting in person. Focus on yourself, your wellbeing, and what makes you happy. Take a long walk, do some kind of exercise that you enjoy, bake or cook something delicious, watch a series/movie/documentary that you like, etc. If you never tried it, perhaps give yoga or meditation a chance - it could be a great way to start. There are lots of free yoga classes on YouTube (I like Yoga with Adrienne) and many meditation apps where you can try it out. You can also have look in our Academy for some free resources that you might find interesting! ?

I've just finished week 1 and forgot to introduce myself! I've done an in-person 4-week course a few years ago as part of treatment for depression and have been using 'Finding Peace in a Frantic World' to try and meditate regularly by myself for several years. Mindfulness practice was possibly the best treatment out of all the many things I've tried, but I'm not good at keeping up with it alone! I've recently had a diagnosis of adult ADHD and started on medication - I joined this course hoping it would give me more structure and commitment to practice, and so far it has done that! I've not missed a day yet. My first day of the Body Scan was also my first day of medication, and I was amazed that I could actually sit for 30 mins and spend more time in quiet wonder than angry/anxious rumination. I noticed getting distracted sometimes but think I was able to come back to the body without stressing out about it. Now I'm getting used to medication, the familiar inner chaos is returning more strongly and I find myself drifting away from the narration and getting lost sometimes - but I guess it's not meant to be all easy and angels singing!

Happy to if your new I would only do few minutes 2 times a day I suggest as soon as you wake up and just before you go to bed if you have a racing mind. I would count your breaths. So for example do 5 sec inhale and hold for 5 second and xhale for 7 or 10 seconds and keep counting. And the counting will stop you from thinking of other things or you could do a mantra I would suggest that fir a beginner there's is many different styles and techniques to use. Let me know if this is helpful if not we can try something els peace much love namaste

What matters is that some souls are loyal to the mind, not falling into years and holding youth by image saint. Echoes of wisdom by candle’s bright, orchestrated shades between the gentle light. Freedom of the noted speech in poetic rhyme, knowing the love source as delicate humane. Bearing off the longing searching riddle, chosen sacred bride as ever constant middle. Taken old crabbed mysteries into new perspective, cutting strains beyond life’s connective. Holding passion as strength of thought, the bounty of blossom from light of night besought. The firmament of changing peace and its multiple rights, captured reflections through many lives lights. Perplexed synchronicities in stories told, the old in the new forever bold. Torches of bewilderment raised by politics, hushes for the exited lunatics. Not seeing the picture of the text, and inquiring the if possible next. The solitary truth as implacable straight line realm, the wandering horizon of the architected dream. A livelong hour in a little story painted, when the moon swam in full by compassion sainted. The anxiety of that passionate youth, as miracle of knowledge introduced. Grow slowly exquisite spring blossoming dear, the songs of the fairy bird so gently near. Hearts of weary and wonder like the sea, cleansing waters by love’s inheritance to be free.

I’m so sorry for your loss. May he Rest In Peace
